After human astronauts attack their city on Mars, the vengeful Mysterons declare war on Earth initiating a series of reprisals that are countered by Spectrum, a worldwide security organisation.

Subject: sorry about the moron below

the real reviews are at the very very very very bottom, cant help internet trolls, internet archive does not allow us to report reviews or delete them, so we just have to deal with the fakebook idiots

Reviewer: FLAC User - - September 28, 2024
Subject: Very powerful drama

For what is supposedly a children's show, this is a remarkably strong drama: Captain Scarlet is murdered on-screen by the Mysterons, and replaced with a duplicate. The body of the real Scarlet is seen lying at the feet of the duplicate, and is dragged away (by what, we never see). But when the duplicate is in turn killed, in a fall, the Mysterons' control over him is broken. The show has a very high 'body count': in every episode, the Mysterons kill someone in order to re-create him under their control, and then use him to try to kill someone else -- typically, someone important in politics or the military. Certainly, the show pulls no punches, and also seems rather creepy, with the Mysterons controlling what are, on the face of it, the walking dead.
